Luminous Arc series is pretty light/generic. But I did play most of Wild Arms XF, which is the same weird fantasy/scifi and not really western themed at all thing as the main series it gets points for trying to use unusual classes/skills and strategies and objectives other than the ones you usually see in FFT/TO knockoffs, though a lot of maps are intended to be beaten by certain classes/skill sets so it's almost more a puzzle game. I think Suikoden, Onimusha, and Dynasty Warriors have SRPG spinoffs but I haven't played any of them and can't comment. Valkyrie Profile: Covenent of the Plume is all about sacrificing the lives of others for more power, except it's extremely short and easy. (Knights in the Nightmare is pretty bleak too, but isn't a srpg) And Gungnir's supposed to be even more serious both in plot (and somewhat in art). Yggdra Union may look like this, but it's actually somewhat morally ambiguous. well they're Idea Factory games Just say no. The Devil Survivor games are modern day so it doesn't quite fit. And then you get to the demon/evil route. ![]() except for Soul Nomad which gets pretty nasty or so I hear (as I haven't played it). NIS's games are pretty lighthearded and comical so they don't fit the criteria. monsters too, the story of the first two games is pretty bleak. Arc the Lad might fit, since although it's pretty much entirely vs. Shining Force is FE lite, and I think is entirely vs. >_> Īnyway yeah Tactics Ogre/Ogre Battle or Fire Emblem would probably be your best bet. Most of the games listed here aren't srpgs. How can you create a compelling narrative when you can kill anything?) rather than a protagonist party of supercharged ubermensches, has a cast of expendable grunts who have a genuine chance of just being wiped out in every battle (this isn't super critical, but I always start losing interest in a game when I hit that point where you can carve through an enemy platoon without breaking a sweat. The first chapter of Tactics was GLORIOUS in this aspect. I don't want these kid-friendly cop-outs, I want to look in my enemy's eyes and feel the horror when he looks just like me. Which brings me to my next point: Less silly lizard monsters, more actual human enemies. Well, I want to enter instructions and watch an animation of a guy hacking another guy in two with a broadsword, but you get the idea. a fantasy (preferably low fantasy) setting - guns are all well and good for an FPS, but I want to hack guys in two with a broadsword in my RPGs. ![]() ![]() a sufficiently serious storyline, with intrigue and nastiness (I'll be honest, I've been hitting Game of Thrones a little too hard lately) a somewhat mature visual style (Tactics is fine, but any more cartoony than that is really pushing it) silly, you know? Let me lay it all out - I'm craving a tactical game that has: I know there are a lot of tactical RPGs, but they all just seem so. We all know and love Final Fantasy Tactics, but there's got to be something just as good out there.

When should you use MongoDB over MySQL and vice versa? One of MySQL's greatest strengths is its widespread usage, especially in web development. It also offers some interesting features in terms of replication and sharding to improve scalability. MySQL is one of the fastest relational databases. One interesting feature is its ability to determine its storage strategy on a per-table basis, allowing for fine-tuning depending on the scenario. MySQL is an open-source relational database engine. Its direct competitors are PostgreSQL and MariaDB. So if you're planning on using it, be ready to set aside large disks for it. The downside is that MongoDB's disk space administration could be better. Another strong point is its thorough documentation. Most operations are optimized to use local RAM, so if the hardware is available and the indexes are properly designed, a MongoDB-based database can be a real asset. One of the outstanding features of MongoDB is its performance. As such, its direct competitors are CouchDB, Cassandra, and HyperTable. MongoDB is an open-source document-oriented database, also referred to as a noSQL database. Now that we have some clarity regarding noSQL databases and SQL databases, we can look at MongoDB vs MySQL. But the cost is the loss of certainty in the quality of the information. The lack of these safety mechanisms give noSQL databases an edge over relational ones in terms of general performance and scalability. That makes it harder to keep those relationships consistent (by avoiding orphans, for instance) and to retrieve related information spread across several collections. In a noSQL database, information is stored in a loose structure, so the properties of two different documents in the same collection can vary significantly.Īnother important difference is that database engines don’t know the relationship between documents in different collections. But it's not. In a relational database, the information structure plays a major role. You might get the impression that this is another way of saying the same thing. While a SQL database has consistent columns, a noSQL database may have different data associated with each record. Instead, noSQL databases have collections, documents, and properties. In a relational database, foreign keys enable you to connect data from one table to another.Īnd having a strong system in place helps prevent some simple inconsistencies within the database.Ī noSQL database doesn't use a relational model. The database itself makes it easy for you to enforce consistency across the model via tools such as foreign keys. You define a data model by putting together a set of tables that contain records with a fixed number of fields that contain a specific data type. ![]() In this model, data is heavily structured. The difference is how the information is organized internally.Ī relational database is based on a relational model. So before we get into the specifics of each product, we need to address the real question: should you use SQL or noSQL? What are the differences between SQL and noSQL databases?īoth SQL and noSQL databases are tools designed to store information. Why? Because MongoDB is a noSQL database, and MySQL is a SQL database. That's like comparing apples to oranges instead of apples to apples. And in order to do that, you need to understand that a straight comparison of MongoDB versus MySQL isn't a fair one. ![]() This article is about the tools you need to make an informed decision about. You need to understand the upsides and downsides of each option and how they align with your company's needs. Of course, you can't base technical decisions on feelings. And there you were, watching them fight like football fans supporting their favorite team-MongoDB vs MySQL. ![]() (To See 67 More FREE Kindle eBooks & Cookbooks Click Here) Twin Flame Code Breaker: 11:11 Key Codes The Secret to Unlocking Unconditional Love & Finding Your Way Home by Dr. ![]() Sheltering an Uninvited Love: A Historical Western Romance Book by Aurora Hanson.Shelter From The Storm: A Hard-Boiled New Orleans Legal Thriller by Tony Dunbar.Sarah’s Inheritance: A New Adult Fantasy Book by Katherine Kim.Stars on Fire: A Spectacular Starlit Romance by Sky Gold.Dirty Irish: A Hot Fling to Forever Romance by Mia Clark.Master’s Captive: Dark Mafia Romance by Faye Pierce.Jameson Hotel: The Dark Suite Series by Aven Jayce.Adversaries: The Lost Souls MC by T.L.You can Also Follow Us On Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram and Telegram for 24 hour freebie updates and more!

I gave up and lived with the loss of credits. I went around this issue over several more emails, but all I recieved was circular reasoning, and bellierance at every step. How can you prove a negative? Yet that's exactly the position they put me in. The script I had told them was never installed in the first place. I was simply told that they "confirmed" the use of the script, and I was told to make sure that the script was not on my computer. I demanded that they provide evidence that I had violated the TOS. Armed with this information, I appealed their decision stating that I never had installed this or any other script on my computer. Wanting to know what it was that I was being accused of, I researched ORI and discovered that it is a script used to streamline scouting, and to allow guilds to share information. Within a week, I was surprised to find my account to be negative and a warning message accusing me of using a script called ORI. ![]() They made a post concerning the use of scripts (which are against the TOS) warning players not to use them. Even I have run afoul of one of the dev team's rampages. The Dev team claim to have an appeal process, but I have never heard of a successful appeal. The reason he was not as active on this account is because he was focusing more of his attention on another account on a different server. He was not progressing fast enough for the AE Team's preferences, so they accused him of transferring credits to other players (he would get attacked occasionally while building up credits), and banned his account. This happened to a friend of mine, he was not very active, but he logged in regularly to keep his account current. They fine, suspend, or ban your account if you are not playing in a way that they approve of. Their only response is usually draconian. They reinterpret the Terms of Service arbitrarily and do much to prevent players from using valid tactics in the game if they just happen to not like them. They have a forum for players to post suggestions, and most of my suggestion have been posted by others. There is no shared intelligence, no ability to organize fleets (other than on the individual level), no ability to coordinate just about anything. Guilds often negotiate treaties, however, there is no in game support for these treaties other than the honor system. There is absolutely no serious guild support. You can join a guild and be identified by it, you have a guild board where you can converse privately out of the ear shot of enemies, but that's it. However, for a largely text based game, most of these improvements are simply that, improvements, but not worth calling content. I'll be the first to admit, I like eye candy. Mostly, they have spent their time on 3D models (which the dev team confirmed have no purpose in the game other than artwork) and artwork based on those models. They have introduced many new languages that Astro Empires now supports (which is over all a good thing for expanding your user base). Additionally, they have revised the rules for fleet detection. (And I hear from even longer term players, that they haven't seen significant development since they've been playing.) In the time that I've been playing, the dev team has introduced a revized production page to allow the production of fleet at all your bases from a common unified interface. In the time I have been playing, there has been no significant development in over a year. Astro Empires is plagued with two principle customer service problems: 1. The answer is deceptively simple: lack of customer support. With all this praise, you may wonder "Why do I say Astro Empires fails to live up to it's promise?" That would be a fair question. The overall structure of the game is simple and rugged.you won't be observing crashes often if at all. It has an addictively simple style of play that makes it easy to pick up and learn, even for the most inexperienced novice. The general concept and primise of the game is sound. I have been playing Astro Empires for well over a year now. As I am presently unable to review (rank too low) I will instead spin my tale here. ![]() To say, if you have pic's and stories of The Igniters that you want to share, send them in, too.Ĭlick here for The Ignitersmusic web site.Ĭlick here to check out FUN featuring Bob McKeag.

The main topics regarding the gameplay and survival mechanics are described on separate pages in the FAQ section - you can learn, for example, how to avoid Nemesis, is it possible to beat Nemesis, how to save the game, are there any safe locations in the game, how to increase the inventory capacity, how to find the best weapons, how to heal the character, how long is the game, what to do with unwanted items, or how to improve the equipment. We have prepared an extensive chapter called starting tips, in which you will find various tips and tricks useful during the first hours of the game. On the first pages of our guide, you will find a guide to the game, which also serves as a survival guide. As a result, the guide should be useful not only for those who haven't played the original game but also for experienced players who have completed Resident Evil 3 Nemesis. However, it also offers completely new scenes, locations, and items. The RE3 remake includes many stages and battles similar to those found in the original version from 1999. During the Resident Evil 4 Remake gameplay reveal, we saw a lot of new features that are arriving when the game launches.This unofficial guide for Resident Evil 3 Remake can be treated as a complete survival guide helpful in completing the game and discovering all its secrets. Yet, while the Resident Evil 4 Remake length is unchanged, other things will. We already know that the new God of War will last 20 hours, just like its predecessor. This seems normal for a game of that time and even these days. According to the How Long to Beat website. The original game took 15 to 30 hours to complete. Resident Evil 4 Remake’s Length Will Be Between 15 to 30 Hours – Just Like The Original It would seem that the game will last exactly the same as the first one. The Resident Evil 4 Remake length has been confirmed by the producer, and it is something great for fans of the original one. However, there is nothing to be afraid of. Given the changes we saw during the initial segment of the Resident Evil 4 Remake gameplay trailer, people were scared.

Can You Fix/Lower Your Pending Sectors Count? Take this sign from the drive as a good time to backup data and consider your options for replacing it. Hard drive failures occur suddenly and the S.M.A.R.T data is there as a warning system of potential failures. While the drive may continue to function fine, I tend to be a bit cautious and suggest you immediately back everything up in the event that it does randomly fail. This is good advice to take at all times, but if your drive is indicating an increase in pending sectors I would suggest immediately backing up any important data on the drive to another hard drive or cloud backup provider. If your primary boot drive or media storage drive has pending sectors I would strongly suggest backing up any important data on the disk and replacing it as soon as possible. If you’re using this drive for a non-critical purpose and have a backup of all data on the drive (or the data isn’t very important) you can continue to use the drive until it dies. If I see pending or reallocated sectors climbing, I immediately purchase a new hard drive and move this drive to non-critical functions or use it for testing in other machines I own. Personally I consider a drive with pending or reallocated sectors as a drive no longer fit for production and my uses. Really depends on how much you value your data and how well you can handle downtime in the event of a disk failure. Should I Replace My Hard Drive If It Has Pending Sectors? As long as this number is fairly low and does not increase drastically, your hard drive may continue to function as normal. Pending sectors turn to reallocated sectors, which re-map the data to spare sectors on the disk. While a few pending sectors may not be anything to worry about if they stay at roughly the same number, or are transferred to reallocated sectors and do not drastically increase. You can learn more on the post I did about the reallocated sector count warning. Pending sectors are the precursor to reallocated sectors which can be a strong indicator of a dead hard drive on the horizon. This is a critical S.M.A.R.T parameter and if the count increases it may indicate that a drive failure is imminent. ![]() ![]() How Important Is A Current Pending Sector Count Warning? Once a sector is reallocated the Current Pending Sector Count will decrease, and the Reallocated Sectors Count will increase.

If these sectors are later read successfully the count will decrease.
